Americana
So I felt this overwhelming feeling of being of being proud to be an American, not like the song though. I was listening to Aaron Copland and watching "When Man Left the Earth" and I thought about how much we did do, it made me happy. The odd thing is, when I was thinking of America from the outside in, the idea of regionalisms began to disappear and the country as a whole, a people began to emerge. We have done a great deal in our 250 years of existence. 250 years is a cosmic blink, not even a blink, but we have done a great deal. Just a quick thought.
